No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The straight Tenckhoff is the most common catheter for peritoneal dialysis. A new, more expensive,self-locating catheter with a heavy tip has been developed by Di Paolo. The investigators used these catheters in parallel for several years. To clarify what catheter has least problems the investigators performed a comparative study to clarify if outflow problems differed between these catheters.
